That was just a joke. But honestly.. let's toss aside whether or not you think he's getting in. Sometimes you should just let people be happy and not try to argue against everything they say.. especially in a place specifically meant for people to get their hopes up. A character thread. And I've read your posts fully, they're a lot less like "saving someone from being disappointed" and more like being a total downer. Pretty sick of seeing this type of stuff in character threads.
Honestly, that's his right to share his sceptimism especially if it is related to a tease.
Because even myself have some sceptimism and like others said, it just might be too good to be true and the reason I think what is more likely is interpreting the circumstances comparing to previous tease, nothing is absolute. Let's be honest: I said [almost confirmed] on Ridley which represents the highest chance rating possible from any subjective standpoint. It's like so close to 100% without being 100%. Saying [confirmed] or [deconfirmed] is literally contradictory because you can't provide evidence to be objective.
Which leads me to this question that anyone even me should answer NO: Are you absolutely sure at 100% of your mind that he's playable?
You could be as sure as possible and still have to answer NO. in theory, that's what a tease should do. In practice however, it was made for a hidden purpose and that's when subjective comes: what is the purpose?
Which means that having sceptimism for a tease is good. Not only you're closer to take both cases as "maybe", but also that if the most unexpected happen, it's surprising. If it is the expected result, it's still good because you acknowledged that you were ok with it.
If you read the beginning of the post, I think you know what I mean by finding this theory "dangerous". That was me looking at the thing as a whole and honestly, I couldn't believe it could even be possible, but let's say it was true and it is the best case possible in a trailer:
What do you think would be my reaction? Mind blown.
The only thing that would convince me that what I tough could happen will happen is seeing it in front of my face. If under any circumstances, my mind can't take the very first second, what do you think I should feel before it happens?
Again, that's the point of teasing. I can tell you that the little mac reveal made a lot of people even those who believed in the stage tease surprise and hype. No one can avoid this unless you don't care, but that's another story.
So, I'm fine if he's telling that it's not sure and that I may overhype stuff because frankly, I didn't wanted to post this for the same reason. It just kept grudging my emotions that at one point, I had to tell it.
And let's be honest: the only objective statement I can tell is that it's unsure.
So, please, let him comment if he wants.
However, I want to say the following for the last time since I don't think you understand.
I don't care as much about the roster as other do. I'm focusing more on general repping which includes the roster. To give you an idea, Ridley and Paper Mario are the only newcomers I care. Rest? Neutral or sceptimism, but still neutral. I don't hate anybody. However, considering that smash should rep nintendo by its masterpieces, that's why I was upset after seeing the TTYD repping on brawl. It appears I had several issues with the repping, but this one kinda became to me care about this. I will be honest, I loved so much this game that I wanted that others would live this.
Which is the whole reason I'm determined here, but what you don't seem to realise is that for myself, it's done. Like, I got what I wanted 22 days ago so I could even left smashboards an be happy with the game.
However, since I just love so much this series and speculating on it especially with the best activity I could have, it was better to stay. Not to mention that what I want to do is share love which is not only me.
Here's what I claimed to be my last worry of this game: not getting the repping further than trophy and not getting at the very least ONE music.
I said this several time in this very thread and I got a stage so it implies 2 music and even repping for THE game I wanted the most. I got more than I wanted do I have any reason to complain about what isn't there?
Doing it is me being an hypocrite. That's why he could deconfirm him directly on a the day before the release and I'll still be happy to have at least the stage. With this section, I have even less reasons.
In other words, I could say the most non sense claim ever and be proven at 100% wrong due to overhype and it still won't be bad for my view on the game.
So, it's not true when you are saying for me only that I'm "setting for disappointment" since I got cleared of my last worry. I can't be disappointed, but I tough I was clear enough.
What is granted is granted. What isn't isn't, but if what is granted is enough, don't be mad to not get what you hope that isn't granted.
So, that's why I'm ok to have a very entitled view on the tease, because no matter what would happen in the end, I'm still going to enjoy the stage and be ok with it.
I really tough I was very clear, but yes, I do acknowledge how far I'm pushing this and yes it's scary, but it doesn't change the objective fact that I got more than I wanted.
Ok, now, I hope I was clear enough. Of course, I'm hoping like others here since, well, support thread, but also because I just like to be hype while reading it and hype myself for a possible tease to then play TTYD.
Now, let me just update stuff (I lost any minute of TTYD).
As you might be aware, the OP is updated. I will try to add music and this section in the OP. The tittle is JUST at the character limit so I have to say "part" instead of "Segment". Sorry for that, but that's spam prevention so it's fine.
Now, I know I did compared to Ridley. That's not the whole tease obviously, this one is FAR from it. I was just pointing out the similarity of the pattern. Both was triggered by an unclear statement having 2 possible interpretations that are opposite. One implies playable and the other not playable. After a certain amount of time, another statement still unclear and it would implies the same outcomes. Naming the stage "Paper Mario" can be interpreted the same way of the mention in July 29. I was just finding weird that apparently, Ridley would maybe have been teased today, but again, that's not April 8 category and is kinda hard to be sure on this one.
Also, yes I calmed down. Tough, be ready to see badly explained statement because I just want to freak out. Same thing happened on July 29 (hey, I'm sure those who were on the potd thread that day can confirm this). That's why i do an essay after some time, to consider carefully when I'm ready to.
I still haven't analysed the pic tough. Like I just made this up in an hour how can I be accurate after careful thinking? Tough, you have to wait for better explanation that would be made in several hours after thinking. I think everyday in my free time anyway.
As for translation, I don't have one, but apparently, the stage is named "Paper Mario" and like I said, it would help the tease. Tough, I think the location helps more.
The only thing that would annoy the purpose of the thread is intentionally prevent support. Claiming sceptimism is not doing this. I mean you can share your concern, but as long as it doesn't prevent hope. Skyblade is doing it appropriately so please, let him talk.
